Finally, finally it’s summer… even if the weather isn’t quite playing ball. June has arrived and with it will come sunshine vibes and general summer joy. But what else can we expect in the next few weeks? Astrology is here to lead the way, with a horoscope for each star sign ahead, but first, let’s break down the cosmic happenings in June 2024. 

First off, Mercury will enter its home sign of Gemini on 3 June, which will make communication flow with ease, especially in relation to big ideas. Think of this as the opposite of Mercury retrograde. Phew. 

The next day will be the Venus cazimi, which will highlight our true desires and how to get them, then on the 6th is the New Moon in Gemini, which will reiterate this energy. On 9 June, Mars will enter Taurus, pushing us to carefully evaluate our every move to determine if it’s worth the energy. This transit paired up with the Mercury cazimi on the 14th can have us thinking and expressing lucrative plans and executing them wisely, which will be needed as outside forces can intimidate us into feeling powerless. Then on the 17th, we will have a double whammy with Mercury and Venus entering Cancer which will bring emotional clarity to our minds, relationships, and day-to-day ebbs and flows.

Towards the end of June there’ll be an energy shift thanks to the sun entering Cancer on the 20th, marking the summer solstice. This will be a good moment to express how we really feel about our current wants and needs. Two days later, the full moon in Capricorn arrives. Be warned: this could bring up some emotional triggers. 

Finally, on 29 June, Saturn will begin its retrograde journey for 2024, having us reflect on the unseen restrictions in our lives… and how they can be blessings in disguise. 

That’s a good overview of the month ahead, but what about the specifics? Read on for your star sign’s horoscope for June 2024. 

21 March to 19 April

Your creativity is going to be on full charge in the first week of June, Aries. Suddenly, past ideas that seemed impossible will seem achievable… but doubts might persist. Keep an eye on your circle and assess which people are supporting your creativity and which are encouraging the self-criticism spiral. It might be time to re-evaluate.

Towards the second half of the month, you’ll have money on your mind – whether that’s spending or saving it. You’ll feel yourself pulled in either direction. Creating a budget and focusing in on your long-term financial goals is a good plan. And remember: you don’t have to splash the cash to have fun. 

But while you’re thinking long-term financially, don’t forget to spend some time in the present moment, too. Throughout June you’ll be reminded to take a moment for yourself and appreciate what you have. It’s all about balance; planning for the future and enjoying the now. 

20 April to 20 May

Taurus, we know you’re in the mood to spend, spend, spend this month, but here’s a nudge from the stars to do so with caution. Don’t completely forget your responsibilities. Frittering away your cash feels good in the moment, sure, but make sure you’re leaving yourself something for the future – or for a more practical, substantial buy. 

June will also be a month of high energy, which could turn into anger and frustration if you don’t use it up. Try to focus your power on aligning your actions to your values. Now is a great time to make some goals happen. Make some space to connect with your community, too – you’ll find hearing different perspectives genuinely transformative. 

21 May to 20 June

You’ve been itching to do some work on yourself, to build towards being the best ‘you’ you can be. You’ve been wanting to take things more seriously, to strengthen your future and to build up some discipline. That’s not easy; especially with your typical Gemini personality of just going with the flow. And this month, you might find your motivation wavering, your eyes wandering. 

Try to refocus by recapturing your excitement. Direct your attention back to the big project of your self, and recognise that the temptation to stray is likely down to some stubborn subconscious patterns that just aren’t working for you anymore. Do whatever you need to get passionate about the task at hand. Look around for fresh sources of inspiration and follow your interest wherever it leads you. 

Your solar return has you in a ‘new year, new me’ mood, but be patient. Change doesn’t have to happen all in one go and it’s OK to take your time to delve a bit deeper. 

21 June to 22 July

You’re in hermit mode in the first half of June. You’ll want to spend some time solo to sort out some tangled thoughts. Consider doing this in a new location – a change of scenery could be just what you need. 

This moment of isolation will in turn motivate you to go after some dreams and aspirations you’ve left on the back burner for some time. While strategising, you’ll wonder what held you back you in the first place. While it’s good to reflect and heal, don’t let this stop this energetic flow to take action. You’re in a special space to create magic right now and you want to go with that flow.

Summer solstice starts your birthday season (happy birthday, Cancers) and you’re feeling invigorated. There is a want to focus on self and being the best person you can be. This may include you detaching from certain relationships, whether they are romantic, platonic, or business related. A push to be more disciplined in your personal beliefs may have you realise that you deserve more than what this relationship has given you. 

23 July to 22 August

With summer finally here, you’re ready to be out and about. You have friends to hang with, connections to make, dreams to actualise. But there is some unfinished business that has been nagging at you while you’re trying to have your fun. Whether it’s a past romance or an unresolved moment this is the time to confront it and heal. You don’t want the past to get in the way of possible opportunities that can make your world that much sweeter.

When you’re a ball of sunshine not everyone is going to like it. There might be someone at your job or even an authority figure giving you extra aggravation this month. Be as professional as possible but also stand your ground. Don’t be afraid to ask for help from your colleagues. You may come up with a plan that can help everyone involved. But it is important to remain as fair and professional as possible – we never know who is watching or listening.

Towards the end of the month a secret might be revealed that will send you on a whirlwind. Don’t let it get to you too much; you know that truth and now you can act accordingly. That may include letting go of some habits or routines that innocently got you there in the first place. A summer getaway might be just what you need to promote a eat, pray, love moment so plan that trip sooner rather than later.

23 August to 22 September

You have so many great ideas on how to move forward with your career and you’re buzzing as you wait to execute them. It can feel that certain responsibilities connected to a close relationship can get in the way of your plans. See this more as an opportunity to balance and plan for your new life. This may be the universe’s way to see if you can handle the juggle. 

The stars point towards an opportunity to travel or to see the world from a different perspective in June. It could be for work or fun – regardless you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the results of this opportunity. This may inspire you to live a little, enjoy your friends, do that thing you’ve always wanted to do. The experience will be worth it.

The more you’re around your people the more you will appreciate them. However, you will notice that they are opening their minds to different things and exploring other relationships. Don’t see this as your friends abandoning you – instead view it as an opportunity for you to explore the unknown (for now at least) as well. 

23 September to 22 October

You’re all about exploration this month. You want to discover new ways of thinking, doing, being. You’ll feel a deep desire to dig a bit deeper on the why – why do you think the way you do? What’s behind certain parts of yourself? Make sure to go through this process gently and with patience. There’s no use trying to rush through the journey of healing and growing. Taking it slow and enjoying the path can be rewarding. 

Towards the end of the month, you’ll notice this inner work starting to pay off. Suddenly people are taking notice. Don’t hide away. Use your natural charm to make big things happen. 

23 October to 21 November

You’re noticing an urge to keep yourself to yourself this month. If you’re going to be socialising, it’ll be with your closest inner circle. Go for it, we say. Now’s a lovely time to go with this flow and strengthen the bond with the people you love. 

Prepare to feel a bit pulled in different directions in June. You’ll have competing needs from your home life, career, relationships, and self-care yanking you every which way. Don’t be afraid to lean on the people around you for support. You don’t have to do it all alone. 

Traveling is on the cards for you in the near future. Instead of thinking of regional travel, think a little bigger, a little further. This would be a great time to expand your mind and see other ways of life. Some time away can be a wonderful way for you to reflect on your work/life balance. 

22 November to 21 December

Your mind has been on the important relationships in your life. There’s excitement about potential for the future, but that’s coupled with some worry about if the good times can last. Here’s your message from the stars: simplify. Relationships don’t need to feel so complicated. If you feel the connection is worth some compromise, go for it. If not, don’t be afraid to call it off. This is a bit of a make or break moment for this bond. 

Regardless of which way you end up going, this decision will lead to a breakthrough moment. You’ll see what’s been holding you back, why you’ve been resistant, with fresh eyes. You’re going through some changes, and that’s tough, but know that the way forward is one of growth. It’s tricky now, but you’ll find your groove soon.

22 December to 19 January

Health is wealth, you know? And we’re not just talking about the physical stuff. This is a month when you’ll need to turn your attention to your mental and emotional wellbeing. You’re realising that the balance is off and there needs to be a change, sharpish. 

But when you try to move towards self-care, you might find another responsibility lands in your lap. Don’t revert to your usual ways of doing it all on your own. Go to trusted people for help. Your loved ones have your back – allow them to lend you a hand. It’s scary to be vulnerable, but letting go a little can be revelatory. 

Ooh, an exciting summer is on the cards, Aquarius. You’re leaning into fun, and you’ve got loads of ideas on how to make it happen. Is romance on the horizon? Maybe… There’s definitely something coming to spice things up. 

Amid this, though, you’re feeling more emotionally triggered than usual. You’ll be tempted to dig in your heels and lean on your usual habits. Resist the urge. This is the universe’s way of saying you need to find new ways to handle the day-to-day tasks that will always come knocking on your door. Take that cosmic call to action seriously. It’s time to find the balance you’ve been craving. 

There may be some routines or habits that are a little harder to let go of. The full moon in Capricorn will be a great time to isolate yourself a bit to understand the whys. Reflecting on the restrictions that are put on us as well as the ones we put on ourselves can show us more about ourselves than we realise. 

19 February to 20 March

As the seasons change, you’re keen to change up your home space. You have so many ideas and you’re ready to bring new energy to your home. Be sure to make this process fun. There is no need to rush things – take your time. Let your home be a reflection of you at your best.

If you’re noticing you’ve been a bit snappy recently, take a moment to reflect on the bigger reason why. What’s triggering you? Taking some time for peace, quiet, or to do something that brings you joy, will be a big help. Anything to get out all that anxious energy in a constructive way. 

By the end of the month, you’ll be up for some new hobbies. Go for it. You might make some new friends, too.
